Cork athlete Michelle Finn finishes 7th in European 3000m Steeplechase final
Cork athlete Michelle Finn was the fastest of the three Irish women in the final of the 3000m steeplechase at the European Athletic Championships in Amsterdam today. After a very strong last lap, Michelle finished in 7th place in a new personal best time of 9m 43.19s. Sara Treacy was just behind in 7th with Kerry O'Flaherty in 12th. Just getting to a European final was a major achievement for the trio but finishing so high up is really something special.
